Hi, I’m planning to major in Astronomy and Physics in the fall at university.
I have an extreme interest in Astronomy and was wondering if anyone could recommend any specific books or things that will help me learn more about the great world of Astronomy
Thanks :D
I dont want to study chemistry as i dont like it! So can i do astronomy/astrophysics without chemistry? My school offers physics,maths and geography together. Can i study these 3 subjects to persue a career in astronomy/astrophysics?
I just need a little more advice on which college I should attend. Right now my top three picks (not in an order) are:
Boston University
University of Arizona
Case Western
I also got accepted to:
University of Wisconsin Madison
University of Massachusetts Amherst
I wanted to major in Astrophysics/ Physics and Astronomy or something similar. I also plan to [...]
I know he explained gravity but I don't understand how Newton’s work linked physics and astronomy? Thanks in advance
Judging by the names, my guess would be:
Astrophysics: Study of the physics and structure of the sky and what it contains (planets, etc).
Astronomy: General study of the sky, planets, etc and general behaviour of it without going too deeply into the physical make-up of it.
